Best Ranger Competition

Pack your bags and start planning now. The 40th Anniversary of the Best Ranger Competition will be here before you know it. We are hard at work behind the scenes planning concepts, looking at venues, designing events, creating commemorative items and talking with partners. Keep your eyes peeled on these monthly updates. We will share any new information here first as we release it. Special thanks to all those that jumped our and sent it a contribution for Best Ranger 2024 and/or let us know how they can support. We are so thankful for you.

Here is the information as we have it at this time:

The National Ranger Association just received the competition concept and will be reaching out to partners over the next couple of weeks to see how we can join together to put on an amazing competition. We can’t wait to talk with you.

Black and Tan

Presented By The National Ranger Association and The US Army Ranger Association. The purpose of the Black and Tan link up is to leverage an event that brings Rangers, and businesses that support Rangers, together in one geographic area. Black and Tan convenes the Ranger community for one night to reunite, intentionally network to grow business opportunities, and fundraise for a Ranger centric cause. Bringing together the Ranger community is advantageous to networking and supporting one another for corporate and philanthropic endeavors.

We deserve the time together.  It is needed sacred time to champion one another. There are too many Rangers doing great things in business to not be more connected. This is an opportunity to expand existing friendships, re-connect with old Ranger buddies and to make some new ones.

Black and Tan exists to build business through brotherhood:

  1. Ranger Veterans of all age

  2. Corporations supporting Ranger activities

  3. Nonprofit leaders supporting the Ranger communityThe most important thing is your presence. 

Please let us know if you would like to contribute (beyond registration) in a meaningful way.  You may contribute here, make a pledge or email us at rgrassociation@gmail.com.  Questions?  Call Candyss Bryant at 706-718-9520. 

Checks should be made out to National Ranger Association (with Black and Tan in the notes section).  Checks may be sent to:  National Ranger Association, PO Box 52871, Fort Moore, GA  31995.
